BACKGROUND Field of the Invention

Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to garments, andmore specifically, to undergarments and their accessories that can beworn with tank tops or any tops or dresses that has shoulder straps orjust strapless for quick style changes as per external requirements.

Description of the Related Art

Undergarments may provide several functions, such as shaping thewearer's body, supporting parts of the body during exercise, andoffering protection to outer clothing. Undergarments can includeeverything from men's vests and women's brassieres or bras to theirunderwear.

Wearing a garment to support the chests or breasts may date back toancient Greece. Women wore an apodesmos, later stēhodesmē, mastodesmosand mastodeton, all meaning “breast-band,” a band of wool or linen thatwas wrapped across the chests or breasts and tied or pinned at the back.Fragments of linen textiles found in East Tyrol in Austria dated tobetween 1440 and 1485 are believed to have been bras. Two of them hadcups made from two pieces of linen sewn with fabric that extended to thebottom of the torso with a row of six eyelets for fastening with a laceor string. One had two shoulder straps and was decorated with lace inthe cleavage. From the 16th century, the undergarments of wealthierwomen in the Western world were dominated by the corset, which pushedthe breasts upwards. In the later 19th century, clothing designers beganexperimenting with alternatives, splitting the corset into multipleparts: a girdle-like restraining device for the lower torso, and devicesthat suspended the breasts from the shoulder to the upper torso.

Women have played a large part in the design and manufacture of variouskinds of undergarments, such as bras, accounting for half the patentsfiled. The Dresden-based German Christine Hardt patented the firstmodern brassiere in 1899. Sigmund Lindauer from Stuttgart-Bad Cannstatt,Germany, developed a brassiere for mass production in 1912 and patentedit in 1913. It was mass-produced by Mechanischen Trikotweberei. LudwigMaier and Cie. in Boblingen, Germany. In the United States, Mary PhelpsJacob received a patent in 1914 for the first brassiere design that isrecognized as the basis for modern bras. Mass production in theearly-20th century made the garment widely available to women in theUnited States, England, Western Europe, and other countries influencedby western fashion. Metal shortages in World War I encouraged the end ofthe corset. Bras were initially manufactured by small productioncompanies and supplied to retailers. The term “cup” was not used until1916, and manufacturers relied on stretchable cups to accommodatedifferent sized breasts. Women with larger breasts had the choice oflong-line bras, built-up backs, wedge-shaped breast pads/inserts betweenthe cups, wider straps, firm bands under the cup, and light boning.

People wear different types of undergarments. Undergarments cangenerally be differentiated as having an upper body piece and/or a lowerbody piece. Some undergarments cover both the upper body and the lowerbody as part of one garment. Various undergarments for the upper bodyinclude varieties of vests and bras. Vests and bras come in differentshapes, sizes, and types, such as tank tops, half sleeve vests, sportbras, lingerie, swimsuits, pasties, strapless bras, push-up bras,compression vests and bras, etc. On the other hand, variousundergarments for the lower body include varieties of underwear, shorts,and pants, such as briefs, Spanx®, leggings, shorts, boyshorts,G-strings, thongs, C-strings, bikinis, etc. Typically, the vests andbras are form-fitting undergarments that perform the function ofsupporting a man's chest or a woman's breasts. The underwear, shorts,and pants are also form-fitting and perform the function of supportingthe wearer's hips and genitals. Swimsuits, camisoles, backless dresses,shirts, t-shirts, pants, shorts, etc. and other garments, may be madewith built-in support that function as undergarments.

There are multiple solutions that have presented in prior art regardingproper support to multiple body parts. However, from prior art researchno similar patent is found which support any individual especiallyfemales to wear them along with their garments and give them proper lookas per their requirements.

The inventor has designed a new assembly where the top ends right underthe bust, covers the back, cut out on the chest area and subtle shoulderpads to give a chic look. It can be worn by women to give themprofessional look at the go without making any additional effort.
